Garden Landscaper’s Diary – Week 3

Katrina went to undertake the first quote of the year this week. The clients live locally and wanted a garden designer in Leigh-on-Sea to help them design their bland garden space. They’ve lived in their house for a year and have renovated the interior quite extensively. They were looking to create a clean modern garden design with a courtyard feel. Katrina helped to inject some personality into the garden by including some metal wall tiles, artificial lawn and cedar panel fencing.

Matt and his team continue work in the Wanstead garden design. They took delivery of the Indian sandstone and began paving. They also part laid a decking platform into this tricky two level garden.

Matt also continued work on the front garden design in Leytonstone by finishing the driveway with Indian sandstone paving. They also erected the front garden wall. All that’s left now is the planting and these will arrive next week.

Katrina continues to work on the Earth Designs portfolio. It is an extensive book featuring over 50 gardens which are designs that both Kat and Matt have either designed or landscaped in the last 15 years. For the first time ever Katrina hopes to be able to produce an online version as well as a hard copy enabling all her clients Worldwide to view the Earth Designs work

We are just about to start marketing with leaflet drops. Katrina has had a postcard designed which is just about got to go into print production and be delivered to houses throughout Essex.

The articles for the Oracle magazine are all written. Matt is just proofing the copy and the first article is due to be sent this week.
